And he did it in the usual "important high up in the Republican ranks" fashion, about 30 seconds.
He, Rush Limbaugh, et al, who "champion" competitive enterprise, are all petrified of actually investing, sacrificing, in it.
As well-circulated as those talking heads may be, they are woefully insufficient to be a presence in our everyday lives where we need something to combat the monopoly of definition which is the bounty of socialists.
Socialists are able to define who we are [supposed to be].
Pakistani ISI and Taliban "leaders" have defined who and what are their followers, and who and what are such peoples' enemies.
And so we suffer from lies.
Whom do you know, subscribes to The Washington Times?
Whom do you know, does that as a gift subscription to their local library?
If the liberals are able to continue to "teach" people [thru the 'liberal media'] that there is only the color red, and the conservatives have a few blue ink blots but not much else, we may expect people to act on the information available to them:
Red.
Now we can continue to sit and complain about all the talk about Red and how unfair it is that the color Blue doesn't get equal coverage ...
... and therefore we can continue ...
... and therefore we can continue ...
Well forget that, if you want to at least have a fighting chance.
This country most hurts because good people get bad information.
Is it not apparent by now that the 'liberal media' are NOT going to provide good info?
Yep.
So we must compete.
And the answer to your question is in the short term, Yes, but in the long term, No.
We have really good people in America.
They need good information to act upon.
Think about it.
The liberals participate in a war of information, in this country, but the conservatives do almost nothing but complain about how unfair it is.
That nearly is, literally, sickening; because it appears that the conservatives [who are so full of talk about how self-determined they are], are unable to operate an ongoing enterprise without government favoritism. Meaning, that their version of what must be done about the 'liberal media' is that their should be laws leveling the playing field.
That's conservativism? Capitalism? Free Enterprise?
No!
And so we witness how poor are our leadership.
It is disgusting.
What we can do is to encourage Freepers to get the word out about the available conservative media and then get that media into the public eye.
When in Washington, DC, pick up copies of The Washington Times and then distribute them. Give a stack to a truck driver who'll pass them along. Give a stack to a river boat tug crew.
Take a stack back to Hometown, U.S.A. and pass 'em out to your friends.
In other words, do what you can to take away the 'liberal media's' monopoly on defining who you are, and you'll find that some people recover their sense of individual responsibility and duty.
Because they know of possibilities other than Red.
